Anti-drugs police found more than 27 kilos of ketamine and smaller amounts of other drugs in a flat in Limassol on Tuesday and arrested the two occupants, aged 23 and 24. Police said the two men attacked officers during the arrest, slightly injuring one.

Members of the Anti-Drugs Unit (YKAN), working with the Intelligence Management and Analysis Service (YDAP), searched the flat at about 11.30am after a tip-off, while the two men were there. They found 27 kilos and 507 grams of ketamine, 377 grams of cannabis, 776 grams of mephedrone, 269 grams of MDMA and 172 grams of cocaine. The investigation that followed also turned up about 10,000 euros in cash, in various denominations.

The injured YKAN officer suffered swelling to the lips and redness in one eye, and was discharged after first aid.

The two suspects are expected in court on Wednesday for a remand hearing. YKAN’s Limassol district branch is investigating.
